There really is so much I should be writing about. Not easily dismissed even for a moment is the expectation of our new family member in September. I keep thinking am I get wimpier or how amazing it is how I forget what these first months feel like. I don't have it as bad as so many but blech. We are really excited! And as many on both sides of our family wonder if we are also destined to "specialiaze" and in our case, boys. Of course we won't know that for weeks but I get all thinky about the little spirit on its way. Brad is studying out an upgrade for our family car so we are ready to make that plunge when we need to.
Brad applied for a promotion at work which also came with a change in duties. He was chosen for the position and is excited to be doing more research at Watson. After three years Brad is also finishing up his final flight training and will begin teaching other students. Flying is still his first choice and hopes to make the career jump one day but actually admitted this new job makes the thought of not getting to fly much easier to swallow.
I was called to be the Sec. in the Primary. I have never served in the Primary and I think that will be a good place to learn. Especially since my little ones are heading that way. I will miss teaching in RS however.
We look forward to a trip to CA to visit Brad's parents in March. I hope that will be about when I feel the life come back into me. Since we planned this trip Brad's mom is trying to get her whole family together in NC for Jim's 50th B-day. We have never all been together in the 5 1/2 yrs. we've been married. I hope it works out. It should happen in late April.
